Flag Day

Hi everyone, long time no see :) I'm close to the end of this pregnancy, so hopefully I will have my energy back soon - I did find out I am anemic, and apparently have pneumonia- so that would explain some of my laziness. We have been doing stuff, but i have been quite slack about documenting. Today, for flag day, we talked about flags, and the US flag. We made a very simple American flag, using a star punch on blue paper, and red dot / bingo paint for the red stripes on white background paper. I do not think we actually got the correct amount of stripes or stars though, but he got the colors right ;)
We also decided to make a "Dodson flag" - where he could use stickers and symbols to represent himself. He was in charge, but I did most of the cutting and placing - which is the way he wanted it. When we were done, we hung it on his door. Then we looked at different state flags and discussed the colors and pictures on them...

Welcome to Pajama Projects...

I am a lucky girl!!! I get to stay home with my sweet little boy and play with glue, glitter, paint, cars, dinosaurs, fire trucks, building blocks and the like! I am a former teacher, with my masters in Early Childhood Education and I can't seem to pull myself away from the classroom. I truly love teaching, and what a better way to do it than right here in my home, with my little man, cozy in our pajamas! Thanks for stopping in and I hope you can find some fun ideas to share with your little ones as well! Now, get cozy, don't dress up for us :)
